BOB ROSS RULES!!!!

I love Bob Ross. He always used to talk about painting happy trees, but they would always be dead. A stoner painter with a squirrel in his pocket...lol. He rocked.

I was so sad when he died :( ('95 was it?), they took his show off the air after that, and they started playing it on one of those crappy no name cabel channels around here but took it off again.

I miss Bob Ross. He really was an amazing painter.

I would totally buy that shirt if I could.

I had to buy it. My grandma is a painter and she used to make me watch it while she painted. If i have any creative talent at all it comes form her.

I just saw the show on i think PBS a couple weeks ago. It is hypnotic. If u start to watch you can't untill he is done. He makes it all look so simple.

sintax: A couple weeks ago?? Man that rocks, they don't play it here at all anymore.

Rev: Yeah, Ive seen that One Stroke Painting with Donna Dooberry. She is incredibly talented as well, but she makes it look TOO easy. Shes just like "Push, turn, squiggle, then lift, and there we have a simple tree in 1 stroke", it's like... WHA!?

I have watched Bob Ross for years! His show is still in syndication around here on PBS I think. I belive he also has a son doing the same thing... if it's not his son - it's someone that looks a hell of a lot like him!

In my OAC art class we had a series of 7 paintings we had to do. This girl in my class got the Bob Ross painting set and videos and showed her progress from 1 to 7. It was unbelievable... she looked like a proffessional at the end. I still can't belive how good they looked.

Yay! :love: I thought he was so cool :beam:

I didn't tape it, unfortunately. I didn't know it was going to be on there, it was only when I watched it and saw my name and that... It was a picture of a wood, with a sunset behind it. Like a coloured background with black trees. :)

I :love: bob ross!

There are 4 very impactful moments in my life which I can remember extremely vividly; where I was, what I was doing, how I felt etc. One of them was when I heard Bob Ross had died :( It was a sad sad day. He was just too fun ;) "Every tree needs a friend" :)

(The other 3 were Challenger explosion, hearing Mel Blanc died and the first incident durring 9-11.)


...

I saw a shirt the other day I liked with the konami code on it. If you didnt know the code you wouldnt understand the shirt.

They should make a shirt showing Bob Ross sniffing paint fumes, and laughing uncontrollably, and the caption should be read, the Joy of Painting!

Huh? Whats this code all about? I dont get it? Anyway i think i was too young to really remeber bob ross, or at least appreciate him. i always used to think he was funny with his hair. But i was just soo young i never got to really experience him.

I saw it on a site that was on the world domination map. I cant remember which one but it was one where every news entry there was a picture. One was the map and about a page down there was the shirt :)
